cloudstack: add support for defining some args as ENV vars (#17946)

These ENV vars are:
  - CLOUDSTACK_ZONE
  - CLOUDSTACK_DOMAIN
  - CLOUDSTACK_ACCOUNT
  - CLOUDSTACK_PROJECT

help to DRY on every task, args still have precedence.

Environment Variables
`````````````````````
.. versionadded:: 2.3
Since Ansible 2.3 it is possible to use environment variables for domain (``CLOUDSTACK_DOMAIN``), account (``CLOUDSTACK_ACCOUNT``), project (``CLOUDSTACK_PROJECT``) and zone (``CLOUDSTACK_ZONE``). This simplifies the tasks by not repeating the arguments for every tasks.
Below you see an example how it can be used in combination with Ansible's block feature:
.. code-block:: yaml
- hosts: cloud-vm
tasks:
- block:
- name: ensure my ssh public key
local_action:
module: cs_sshkeypair
name: my-ssh-key
public_key: "{{ lookup('file', '~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub') }}"
- name: ensure my ssh public key
local_action:
module: cs_instance:
display_name: "{{ inventory_hostname_short }}"
template: Linux Debian 7 64-bit 20GB Disk
service_offering: "{{ cs_offering }}"
ssh_key: my-ssh-key
state: running
environment:
CLOUDSTACK_DOMAIN: root/customers
CLOUDSTACK_PROJECT: web-app
CLOUDSTACK_ZONE: sf-1
.. Note:: You are still able overwrite the environment variables using the module arguments, e.g.``zone: sf-2``
.. Note:: Unlike ``CLOUDSTACK_REGION`` these additional environment variables are ingored in the CLI ``cs``.
Use Cases
`````````
The following should give you some ideas how to use the modules to provision VMs to the cloud. As always, there isn't only one way to do it. But as always: keep it simple for the beginning is always a good start.
